New Station in Maine
It's a Pixel. I had not chosen which loop to ship when I configured the Kiwi here at home.

GPS RSSI vs. C/N0 vs. -dBm
Here's data I took using the Spectracom GSG-6 Simulator for L1 sats. This compares Kiwi S/N3327 with a SwiftNav Piksi (no antenna, direct connect via DC Block)
Note that the Kiwi has about 15 dB less margin at low levels

Suggestion and comments on GPS please [resolved, see list of improvements]
My project for tmrw is to use a Spectracom GSG-6 GPS simulator/generator to map actual signal strength at the Kiwi GPS input to reported RSSI. Report to follow

Interesting signal 16115 MHz
ERP the result of antenna gain I'll guess. Rockwell-Collins has a WBHF waveform that goes to 48 KHz. http://www.hfindustry.com/meetings_presentations/presentation_materials/2012_sept_hfia/presentations/RC_WBHF_UK_Trial_2012.pdf -
Any Ideas [AM BCB overload]
I posted some howto in another thread for making AMBC notch filters
